Leak Detection Garland TX
Rowlett Leak Detection helps Garland homeowners and businesses find the exact source of a suspected leak before it turns into a bigger repair.
A rising water bill, a water meter that won’t stop moving, or a damp spot with no clear cause are common signs of a hidden leak. Rowlett Leak Detection uses non-invasive detection methods, including acoustic detection, pressure testing, and thermal imaging, to locate the problem without unnecessary digging or demolition.

Service Areas
Areas We Cover
Rowlett Leak Detection provides leak detection services throughout Garland, including areas near Firewheel Town Center, Downtown Garland, Duck Creek, and neighborhoods bordering Lake Ray Hubbard.
Garland has a mix of housing stock, with many homes built between the 1960s and 1990s. Older copper and cast-iron plumbing, combined with the region’s clay-heavy soil, can contribute to slab leaks and underground line issues over time. Clay soil expands when wet and contracts when dry, which can shift and stress buried pipes and foundations across many northeast Dallas County suburbs, not just Garland.
This is one of the reasons slab leak detection and underground leak detection are common requests we get from Garland property owners, alongside general water leak detection and residential and commercial leak detection services.
Whether you’re near Spring Creek Forest Preserve, close to Garland ISD schools, or on the Rowlett/Garland border, we can help investigate a suspected leak at your property.

Questions We Hear Often
Frequently Asked Questions
Common signs include a water bill that’s higher than usual, a water meter that keeps moving when all fixtures are off, the sound of running water with nothing turned on, unexplained dampness, warm spots on the floor, or moisture with no obvious source.
Turn off all indoor and outdoor water use, including sprinklers, and watch your water meter’s low-flow indicator. If it keeps moving, that suggests ongoing water use somewhere on the property. This matches guidance from the City of Garland’s own water utility page.
In most cases, yes. Rowlett Leak Detection uses non-invasive methods like acoustic detection and thermal imaging to narrow down a leak’s location before any digging, cutting, or repair work is considered.
It’s usually a combination of two things: a large share of homes built decades ago with copper or cast-iron plumbing, and the clay-heavy soil common across this part of Dallas County, which expands and contracts with moisture changes and can stress pipes buried under the slab over time.
Coverage varies by policy and by whether the damage is considered sudden versus gradual. We recommend checking directly with your insurance provider about what your specific policy covers.
It depends on the suspected leak type and how accessible the area is. A straightforward fixture leak can be quicker to investigate than a suspected slab or underground leak, which may require more than one detection method.
Hard water can contribute to mineral buildup inside pipes and fixtures over time, which may weaken connections and joints, though it’s rarely the sole cause of a leak on its own.
Suspect a Leak? Don't Wait on It
Left alone, a hidden leak can waste water, raise your utility bill, and eventually lead to water damage or a larger repair. You don’t need to know exactly where the leak is before you call. Call Rowlett Leak Detection and tell us what you’ve noticed.
